Passing Time

Now the month of Sept and I am very aware that it is but a few weeks till I have completed my first year without D - quite a few blips and quite a few good 'uns - hey aint that just the way of life, but with a succession of visitors I haven't time to sit and get maudlin which has to be a good thing......first Maria who was such an inspiration and good energy to have here, especially after the emotional glitch I decided to go through - bizarre or what?? After Maria comes Anne - a lady who got in touch via the green handbook and I had no prior knowledge of - but we have hit it off very well and so having had to contend with much that was negative I was then given via Maria and Anne a much lighter enjoyable energy - thanks be to the universe - take the not so good and the good will come round - yin yang - night day - black white - hey ho aint it so with life LOL.......I am getting stronger - the lessons the universe sends my way ensures my place in the school of life....... This Full Moon falls at 13 degrees Pisces and Virgo. It is said that the middle third of any sign deals with the social levels of life, and being the second decan of those signs, invokes a sub-influence of Cancer and Capricorn. Since the Moon always focuses the light of the Sun in specific forms, the degree symbols for both are important. The Sun degree is the illumination or enlightenment of the lunation, whereas the Moon shows us the potential forms that enlightenment will take. The Solar degree Sabian Symbol is "A Strong Hand Supplanting Political Hysteria." This is a degree where energies are transmuted through the power of the personality to articulate racial ideals. Rudhyar comments that it symbolizes "charisma" that focuses "the collective need for order... into a personage who incarnates the answer to this need." So the Light will show as an ability to calm and inspire others, restoring emotional or social chaos to a form of order. Perhaps this shows a need to speak to the unconscious, personal or collective. Here personality is the vehicle for the Higher Mind focused through "voice" magnetism to exert control over the lower nature. Dr. Jones says the keyword is POWER and when positive it's said to be a degree of "consistent effectiveness in dramatizing personal potentials." We find it is a degree of "the weight of human personality" as it intervenes in public affairs where drifting or confusion has set in. Stating "The greatest opportunity for self-discovery lies in the transient crises of everyday living," this symbol provides us all a corrective in our personal and interpersonal affairs. The Lunar degree symbol is "A Sword in a Museum." It speaks of the "courage and fearlessness needed in the quest for spirit and real understanding." We are told we need faith in ourselves, while examining any feelings of emptiness or dread. We are reminded that our Will is our ultimate Spiritual weapon, and used with Love, Wisdom, and Intelligence in an action focusing the greater good we serve as examples for others to follow in their own way and time. This symbolizes the ability to become a symbol of courage that certifies our Spiritual worth. Mars activates and accelerates the pace of events in our lives. People currently going through dynamic activity, a hectic fast-paced period, or having the hardest time in early September are March Aries, June Cancers, September Libras, and December Capricorns. These signs, as well as others, are also affected during the next 8 weeks. From the second week of September through the end of the month, this applies to Aries, Cancer, Libra, and Capricorn born the first half of April, July, October, and January. The first half of October it applies to these signs born the 3rd weeks of those months. [lau that's u n me!]Beginning mid-October, this applies to Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, and Aquarius born the end of April, July, October, and January. If you were born in these zones, focus on what constitutes responsible action, given these birth periods show more highly agitated energy than usual. Mars tests us to get a grip on our energy and shows us how well we are demonstrating self-control or not. Mars is our "fight or flight" principle, and symbolizes what aggravates us, so if you are affected by its transit, beware of hasty action, argumentativeness, or impulsiveness. A way to use what I post here is that if you know your chart, examine the Mars effect in light of planets you have in the signs that are conjunct, square, or opposed to/by Mars. Because this month it moves forward from 4 to 22 Cancer, that span is specifically activated. In October, it will move from 22 Cancer to 8 Leo, activating that span during that month. For instance, if you have Mercury in a Cardinal sign (Aries, Cancer, Libra, Capricorn)[yep mercury in libra] or in the first 8 degrees of a Fixed sign (Taurus, Leo, Scorpio, Aquarius), examine the challenges relative to your mind, interpretations, or thinking patterns, as well as other planets influenced by Mercury. If you have Venus in a Cardinal sign or the first 8 degrees of a Fixed sign, examine what is said in light of your likes and dislikes and other Venus-influenced areas in your chart. If you have Mars in the a Cardinal sign or the first part of a Fixed sign, regard what is stated in the context of Mars-ruled affairs and activities. This shows an important shift in your Mars cycle, so heads up! You can also apply what follows regarding this month if you have an Ascendant (Rising sign) in a Cardinal sign or the beginning of a Fixed sign....... September fulfills an old cycle for Libras born in late September through the first half of October. The first half of October, this applies to Libras born the 3rd week of October. The last half of October this applies to Scorpios born at the end of that month. Interesting times, especially as I will be in Scotland in the first half of Oct. So forewarned as forearmed lol - gotta remember Lau n I are both the 3rd week of Aries and Libra - Sa you should have gone through your stuff hehehe as you are the beg of Jan like J - so keep alert :) Well the weather has certainly cooled down, bliss even had some rain day before yesterday and most mornings are cloudy and cool, so back to the gym for me. Afternoons are hot and Anne has been enjoying time up at the pool, we have discovered we know a lot of folk - folk from Moffat that I haven't seen in many a long year and maybe a good contact for the crochet.........we shall see......anyway am now working on jackets again - with a new twist to them..... Now I must take the mutts out for their early morning meander, Barbara dog is here while L & K are back in the UK, and later I am taking Anne up to the lakes for a bit of sight seeing Brightest Blessings xx Powered by ScribeFire.
